Actually, they should probably just be changed to 
'pkgfile:peak.web/resource' and the equivalent for 
version-config.  However, there is a bug in the 'runIni' command, in that 
it absolutely requires a filename.  This isn't fixable right away, because 
it's going to need to use the pkg_resources module (part of the "Python 
Eggs") runtime in order to get around this.

Anyway, changing the first one above to a 'pkgfile:' URL works, but the 
latter won't until pkg_resources is available.
